Rhino Explicit History
A new plug-in for Rhino4 is being developed. Rhino is finally going (pseudo) parametric. It’s still at an early stage, but the potential it has is amazing. I’ve been exploring this new world of Rhino past few days. It’s like scripting without coding. Here’s an example of what it can do.

mario, I’ll soon upload the rhino file and the explicit history tree file on the blog which you can open and see the way the images above are built.

This would truely be very kind of you, to hand out one sample of your beautiful work! Just downloaded yesterday explicit history and it seems very impressive indeed!

You’re site is awesome, it would be amazing if we could get a hold of this file so we could see how all the connections are related and what they belong to in rhino.
Thanks

Main question is how do you get the base plane perpendicular to the point it is connected too.

Hugh.
There’s a few different ways of spliting the surface into U/Vs in the explicit history. Try different ones. I believe the one that divides and creates frames makes the base planes to be perpendicular to the normal of the surface at each point.

Just wondering if you are just screen-shooting to get the images of the grasshopper family tree, or is there is a way to “save as .jpg” or image or something. Basically I need and image of my grasshopper file but it is very big and will be horrible resolution with a screen-shot. Thanks!
